A Train In CrAak.

DENVER, Col, Aug. 26-An accident oc-
CURED to the east-bOund Union Pacific ex-
press at the Sandy creek bridge, ten miles
east Of here last night, resulting In tho death
OF Engineer MaSterson and seriously wound
ing two or three trainmen. Tho Union Pa
cifc and Burlington bridges cross Sunday
creek almost parallel, and within few feet
OF each other. When the engineer of tho
Union Pacific train, which leaves here about
thirty minutes ahead of the Burlington, was
within few feet of the bridge, he was hor-
rified to see that food had washed the mid
die section away.
The fireman jumped into the stream and
stuck in the sand. He was taken out hAk an
hour later in an unconscious condition and
may die. Masterson reversed his engine just
as it plunged into the water with the baggage
car on top. His body was buried in the sand
and has not yet been recovered. The engine
il completely submerged in the sand. Bag
gageman BreedlOne was badly injured by
falling trunks.
An old German woman living near heard
the cries Of the frightened people and rushed
out with a lantern and stopped the approach
ing express on the Burlington road within
few feet Of the bridge, probably saving other
lives, as the bridge on this road was also In
dangerous condition.
A young fellow by the name OF Ceander,
who was stealing a ride on tho front end OF
the baggage-car at the time OF the accident.
was found near the bank Of the creek early
this morning badly scalded about the head
and chest and with his hips badly crushed.
He was taken to hk fathers residence In this
city, and died at noon.

@GLENwooD SPRINGS, Col, Aug. 25.-Gov.
ADAMS, Denver: Mai Leslie has Ccloro~
corralled with 200 bucks, They say they
want to see big white man and that they
won't talk to cowboy; the whites here want
no fght. Kendall has only hfty-two men
This Is positive. All other information on
this point false F. NJ REARDoS.
Later Gov. Adams received another mes
'sage, which read:
"Please come to Glenwood Springs immedi'
ately, even ii it requires a special, to meet
Gen. E Test and County Commissioners
Gregory and Reynolds. An emergency exists
which requires your pres ence here at ones.
Adjt Gen. West, the county commissioners,
and others are now en- route to Glenwood
Springs from Meeker to meet the Governor,
whom Gen. ReardOn telegTaphed to come
Immediately, even it required a special train,
as an emergency had arisen wherein the
Governors presence was at once needed.
Notwithstanding all tho talk Of peace
conference, there are still very warlike
,rumors from the scene Of the Indian troubles
Foote, courier for the scouts, just in from
-Meeker, says that Colorow and seventy war
rfors have just held a council at Blue Noun
tain, in which Colorow had said: white
man want little Aght. Send troops back or
be big fight" The courier said a 6Sht was
expected that night
Another courier into Meeker says he had
to run for his life, as he was chased by q
large band Of Indians, and that several shots
were fired at him
The tone OF the dispatches Is that Colorow
has 200 warriors under his command at the
present time. The condition Of affairs Is
such that within . short time everything
may have . very peaceful turn, or there may
Be battle. The militia number 35S men, al
but sixty Of whom are mounted.
This afternoon the assistant secretary Of
3he interior telegraphed Gov. Adams that the
/ President could not order out the troops a,
matters now stand. and In reply Gov. Adams
'sent . dispatch that he had gone to Glenwood
for reasons mentioned above, and made the
request that officers from Fort Duchesne re-
port at once at the scene Of the troubles.
Gov. Adams also requested Senator Teller 10

They Issue an Address to the Electors q
That State.


That State.
PETERSBURG, Va, Aug. 2&-ThO Virginia
Republican State committee, in an address
Just Issued, attacks the recent address Of the
Democratic State committee, charging the
latter with inconsistency in first indorsing
President Cleveland's administration and
then demanding the immediate repeal OF tho
internal-revenue system and the passage Of
the Blair bill, "for the opposition OF Presi-
dent Cleveland to the one and the lack Of his
Endorsement Of the other Of these measures Is
known to all men," The Republican address
contends that only a small minority Of the
Democratic party favors q repeal OF the In
Cernal-revenue system, and that the declare
ton In favor Of such repeal is an apparent
effort to deceive the voters OF the State.
The address attacks tho tariff plank Of tho
Roanoke platform, which declares in favor
OF a revenue derived from Q tariff on imports
and In favor OF repeal Of the informal
revenue system, "whilO the record Of the
Democratic party Of the country consistently
and unwaverinGly shows that the reverse Is
the Democratic doctrine"
The address arraigns the Democracy for itS
course on the State debt question. While the
finances Of tho State were in . hopelessly

legislature adopted plan Of readjusting ls
eQuitably, which the Democrats, since they
have gained control of State affairs, have
nuili1ed by their Incompetence and unfaith-
fulness 1t charges the Democratic man
ayers with playing fast and loose with the
British bondholdsrs and with repudiatinG
the pledges made previous to their election.
As to the promised aid for our disabled sol
diers and their widows, the address warnS
the people Of Virginia that II the party now
In power Is allowed to remain In control its
1ncompetency and Encouragement will leave
no revenues to DO appropriated for the relief
OF soldiers and their wldoWA The declOra-
ton in favor Of the Blair bill, it says, Is Of .
piece with the other pretenSes Of the paper
we are criticising. The Blair bill was twice
passed by Republican Senate and twice de-
feated by Democratic House.
Touching the resolution inderSing the adj
miniStration of Gov. Leo as "wiSe and judi
ciOus," the address says: 1--WE confess our
selves at a loss to know what thought or
action Of Gov. Lee has deserved such CON-
naendation," and proceeds to give . list of tho
Governors shortcomings, charging him with
using the State boards to reward broken
